Virus: It sounds like you have a virus of some kind, probably gastroenteritis. Keep hydrated and see your doctor if you have any bleeding or other problems with the pregnancy. Based on your description, i don't think your symptoms have to do with your pregnancy.

Sick and pregnant: Because you are pregnant, you are at an increased risk of having serious health issues for you and the baby when you become ill. Having vomiting can cause you to become dehydrated very quickly. It is best to call your doctor and have yourself checked out. Good luck!
